John Holmes, 1904-62Bibliography

The material contained in the following pages has been brought together from twobibliographies of Holmes’ work. Alan Seaburg compiled a bibliography of Holmes’writings which appeared in the Bulletin of the New York Public Library (v. 11, no.5) in 1967. A subsequent bibliography was prepared by Gabor Erdelyi and Mary A.Glavin which incorporated additional published materials as well as the unpublishedmaterials contained in the Holmes collection at Tufts.

For ease of use, the contents of both bibliographies dealing with Holmes’ publishedworks have been combined and organized into sections. However, two importantcaveats apply. Firstly, this bibliography does not have a direct relationship to therecords on the Holmes collection contained in the collections database, and thusdoes not perform the role of a finding aid for the collection. Secondly, while someerrors in the content of the of the bibliographies have been corrected, no systematiceffort was made to check the bibliographies against reference sources to removeincorrect information. A number of citations are incomplete, and the listing has notbeen updated to reflect recent publications of works by Holmes.
